Description:

A mod offering 13 new game modes:

  • Shrinking: Annihilation, but the withdraw radius goes down over time. Time limit is required.
  • Supremacy: Control, but destroyed or evacuated ships (not withdrawn ships) also provide the enemy team with points.
  • Advance & Secure: Teams capture control points from both ends of a sequence, eventually pushing each other out.
  • Monopoly: Win by simultaneously controlling a given number of capture points.
  • Center Control: Control, with only a single control point at the center.
  • Center Station: Symmetric station capture, with a single neutral station at the center.
  • Two Stations: Control both stations simultaneously to win.
  • Flag Delivery: Attackers win by delivering a flag into a base in defender’s territory.
  • Flag Hunt: Attackers try to find and bring a neutral flag back to their base (likely being carried by the defenders).
  • Two Flags Delivery: Both teams try to deliver flags into the other team’s territory — Capture The Flag, but with the base locations swapped.
  • Seek and Destroy: Attackers win by destroying all defender ships; defenders win by surviving (or destroying all attackers). Score is number of remaining ships on defenders team.
  • Depletion: Defenders start with all capture points; attackers destroy capture points as they are captured.
  • Double Depletion: Both teams destroy capture points as they are captured.

Current version: 0.8.3
